Future Church: Global Church

Jun 20, 2015

The Challenge

The church is growing rapidly in countries where there are limited resources. This team was tasked with developing a concept where large churches in countries with resources could provide structures that would be easily implementable in underdeveloped global areas in a variety of climates and terrains.

The Big Idea

The Global Church relies on infrastructure that can be drop-shipped and completed with indigenous materials. The design is affordable, secure, sustainable and repeatable in different climates. Details and features of the global church include:

Water storage and electricity generation

Light materials are affordable to drop ship but strong and durable once welded

Resilient in rainy and dry climates.

Masonry wall with indigenous materials serves as security and can be painted/finished by local artists.
